ISSUE 10 - NEXT STEPS: TAKING ACTION

Description:

As a Parliamentarian, you are in a unique position to bring attention to issues that may have been previously neglected, including ensuring universal access to SRHR for all. Here, a key first step is helping others to understand the economic benefits of having full provision of, and access to, SRH and HIV services.

SRHR must not be approached as an ongoing cost to the nation. It is important to convey the fact that, ensuring equitable universal SRHR is a long-term cost-saving strategy. It is vital to look to the national financial and human resource savings that will be made. Presenting the financial case for investment is a very useful advocacy strategy.
